Proposal

T1, Oak: Remove approximately 30% of the foliage area of the tree by via thinning. This pruning should be achieved by: - reduce lowest limb growing towards house by 4m, back to the two side branches making a 175mm diameter pruning cut; - prune back branch over topping lowest branch growing towards house to prevent shading of lower branch; - prune remainder of crown by reduction via thinning, seeking to removing 25-35% of overall foliage area; - pruning to target most heavily extended and laterally growing branches by removing 3-6m branch sections making pruning cuts of around 100mm in diameter.
